A nice example of a Phoebus A-1 with useful load of 224 pounds. Stabilator refinished and balanced by Fidel in moriarty in 2015. The exterior condition of this glider is better than "good" but I didn't want to call it "excellent" as there are some small areas that have some cracking in the surface paint. The underlying structure is solid. It gets favorable comments when I take it to other glider fields. It's a fun glider to fly with about a 36:1 glide ratio. I have many reent photos showing more detail that I am willing to share with a prospective buyer. The trailer is very functional although it loads from the front (hitch end) of the trailer. No bad, just different. Spare canopy blank available. 22 cu. ft. O2 bottle and mountain high regulator available.
